    ONLY Face safe sunscreen I can use on my eczema

    I have tried SO many high price point facial sunscreens (like la roche posay), but they all make my eczema worse tenfold and it BURNS. During summer, my facial eczema tends to weep if it decides to flare up that year, but not putting on sunscreen is not an option because the sun will make it flare up further. This sunscreen has saved my face, I can't recommend it enough. Lightweight and perfect under makeup, affordable (if you buy it in Japan, or get it imported from an affordable site, aim for around $20 CAD), and great for sensitive skin. I actually used this squeeze tube face version for a while, but bought the same big plastic bottle that's actually for body and face use. Texture is a bit different, but does the exact same job and is a few times the volume for the same price.

    A sunscreen staple

    Really good sunscreen. It's a Japanese sunscreen so you can feel safe using this. I use it on my face and body. I don't notice a scent but be aware it contains alcohol so when you apply it you can immediately smell the alcohol evaporating. With that said, I don't feel like it's drying. It's also clear so you don't have to worry about a white cast.

    Delightful

    This is my favorite sunscreen! It is pretty reasonably priced if you get it bulk on Amazon. The scent is very subtle. It feels moisturizing but fairly light on the skin. It provides a slight glow but only enough to make your skin look healthy - not greasy. After wearing a mask though, I recommend reapplying as the tip of my nose burnt 😆. If your skin is very oily it may be too moisturizing though - maybe don't buy in bulk if you haven't tested it.

    Amazing sunscreen - would highly recommend

    This sunscreen is such a breeze to use, its watery gel texture glides on and absorbs very easily into the skin and doesn't leave any white cast at all. I find the fragrance to be strong when first applied - to me it smells like citrusy and alcohol which is why I knocked off half a point.

    I have combination-dry skin and I find that I do need to wear a light moisturizer underneath this sunscreen or some of my dry patches will show through. Overall though, I would definitely recommend this sunscreen and be repurchasing it myself as well.

    Just wow!!

    I got this beauty straight from Japan 🇯🇵 about a couple of weeks ago or so. It wasn’t exactly what I expected, yet I am IN LOVE with this product!! I’ve never tried a sunscreen like this before. It’s a watery gel texture, super soft, kinda like your regular gel moisturizer (for example Biotherm Aquasource Gel) but with an amazing 50 SPF!! I expected a slightly thicker, clear gel, but this works amazingly. Absorbs super quick, like a good essence; and doesn’t peel off with my moisturizer and foundation on top. My skin and I have been enjoying it a lot. For the price, quality, and size (I got the 50ml), I can’t give it any less than 4.9 stars ✨ Absolutely recommend!!

    Holy grail for sun protection

    My favourite sunscreen product of all times. It is extremely light in texture and absorbs quickly, does not leave any residue. Goes beautifully under makeup. Does not cause break-outs. I have gone through 5 bottles of this and can't do without it!

    Holy Grail!

    This is a Holy Grail sunscreen of mine- it's perfect for people with skin of colour, absorbs beautifully as well! Normally sunscreens leave a white cast on my skin which I don't like, but I don't find that with this product.

    Love this sunscreen

    I really like this sunscreen because it provides great coverage and is very lightweight. It does not have a thick/heavy feeling that some sunscreens have and it does not leave a white cast. My only problem with this sunscreen is the addition of fragrance - I wish biore would make an unscented version

    Great as primer base

    I have oily acne prone skin, so most sunscreens make me more oily and or clog my pores. The texture of this is more on the watery side vs creamy which I really like. I find this works well as a primer too!

    Holy Grail Sunscreen

    This sunscreen is one I stock up on every time I go back to Asia. The consistency is more watery than most North American sunscreens; however, once placed on skin it absorbs so easily. It's important for my sunscreen to be light enough for me to place makeup over - and this is one I know I can count on.
